    The document discusses data from the Superman - Ride of Steel rollercoaster at Darien Lake, New York. It provides the horizontal and vertical distances of part of the rollercoaster track. A quadratic equation is determined to best represent the data, with a maximum height of 103 feet at 50 feet horizontally. The equation predicts a height of 123 feet at 500 feet horizontally, which does not make sense as it exceeds the maximum height. It also predicts a negative height of -3 feet at a horizontal distance of 20 feet backwards, which is not possible.

    The Superman - Ride of Steel rollercoaster in Darien Lake, New York, reaches a maximum height of

    about 208 feet. The data below displays the horizontal and vertical distances, in feet, of a
    portion of the rollercoaster track.
    Horizontal Distance Vertical Distance
    0 3
    10 23
    20 43
    30 63
    40 83
    50 103
    60 123

    1. Graph the data. What type of polynomial equation might reasonably be chosen to
    represent these data?



    2. Determine the regression function. Round to 4 decimal places. Sketch a labeled graph
    of the function below.












    3. When youve travelled 500 feet horizontally, what vertical height do you expect
    according to your equation? Does this make sense? Explain.













    4. If the rollercoaster were to roll backward, what would you expect the height to be 20 feet
    back ( ? Does this make sense? Explain.
